Note

This dish adapts well to slow cooker methods. For best results, use chuck steaks for tenderness.

Serve with mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, or rice to absorb the flavorful gravy.

If using a slow cooker, brown the meat in a skillet first to enhance flavor, though you can also sear directly in the slow cooker if it has a sauté function.
